If it can ever be driven home to the seat of theological
intelligence that the whole Christian Bible is just a somewhat
specialized collection of the same stories, myths and
allegories as constituted the mythical aggregations of Greece
and other countries, it will mark the day-break of the new and
true light on Biblical exegesis.

The very foundation of Christian and Hebrew religions is the Bibles. They
totally base their faith on the Bibles.
The Bibles are nothing more than books of myths, fables, contradictions,
human and animal sacrifices, genocide, slaveholding, misogyny, destruction,
barbarisms, and impossible tales. They are not accurate history and
certainly are not the words of any god unless he is an insane and totally
untrustworthy monster. They are not even good fiction.
The average person today does not appreciate the difficulty and unlikelihood
of producing accurate transmissions of the original Bibles. Firstly there
are NO ORIGINALS in existence. They are all copies of copies of unknown
accuracy.
One of the problems with the accuracy of the Bibles is that when they were
first copied, no marks of punctuation were used, no distinction was made
between lower case and upper case letters and more bizarre to modern script,
no spaces were used to separate words.
This kind of continuous writing was called "scriptuo continua".
'godisnowhere' could mean 'god is now here' or quit the opposite, 'god is no
where' depending on the spacing which was not used at the time. This left
accurate interpretation very unlikely if not impossible.
Add to this the natural occurrence of errors of transmission and the
intentional modification to suite the transcribers wishes and beliefs and
you have documents of highly questionable meaning and very atrocious
accuracy.
Further compounding the problem was the size and accuracy of the
vocabularies were much more limited than today. And they were written before
the modern dictionaries so there was room for much conflict between the
meaning of words.
The Bibles are a foundation of quicksand. There are NO ORIGINALS in
existence. Why would not any 'real' God protect the originals??? What are
available are altered copies of copies by unknown men of questionable
veracity. The books of the Bibles were written over 1,000 years before the
invention of the printing press. Even the so called originals were
supposedly written by 50 or more different authors of unknown veracity. They
are biased by, and dependent on the writings and opinions of the clergy. And
the status and survival of the clergy is totally dependent on their follower's
belief in their Bible stories. There are 18 different English versions alone
and there is no way of knowing how far they have wondered from the
originals.
And there is no evidence that even the originals are anything more than
inaccurate fiction.
Basing ones life and faith on these documents is basing ones life on trash.
It is the equivalent of depending on the good luck of a rabbit's foot.
